The week in Altadena
What moved, what dropped and what changed hands in Altadena, read the way an inspector reads a house.
The Altadena file →The largest reduction on the desk was 1205 E Loma Alta Drive — down $25,000, from $775,000 to $750,000, listed by COMPASS.
16 listings changed status: 9 sold, 4 active under contract, 3 pending. The brokerage on every row below is the listing brokerage on the record, not ours.
9 homes came to market, asking from $550,000 to $2,150,000.
That is the week, address by address. What any one of these rows means for a house on the same street is the question the file answers next.
